Todd What you are asking for is not a bug, but a part of the current stage of design. It will probably get quicker. However, the biggest part of the timing is the compilation - as you have noticed. When you precompile a module, it stores the byte code. Then it runs quite well. Now it IS

This made me want to try a contrived puzzle, use 'fff' to show things between a "start" and 2nd "mark" line. That is, print any line below not marked with "!" at the start $ cat example.txt !ignore me Start hi print me yes! Mark still print me Mark !ignore this line !this line too Start

There doesn't need to be an ASCII equivalent of ≢, because you can combine (==) with the ! metaop to come up with !(==) On Sat, Aug 1, 2020 at 4:58 PM yary wrote: > For every Unicode operator, there's a "Texas" ASCII equivalent > (==) for ≡ > but... none that I can find for ≢ > is this an
